Style

Reductional music complexity RMC

Rešidbegović formed a new wave of 21st-century classical music, known as Reductional music complexity, a term dating from 2003, based on a new order of parameters and their categorization by the composer. Another description of his style is "rhythmical music" which came from his categorizations of rhythm, or corpse of the music. Inspired by musicians such as John Cage, Mauricio Kagel, Karlheinz Stockhausen, Hans-Joachim Hespos and his professors Rainer Bischof and Detlev Müller-Siemens, he started to write music without tone pitches and established many compositional techniques of "reductional complexity". Musical parameters such as rhythm, dynamics, his own expression marks and description, extended techniques of many instruments are the base of his music, usually written with graphic notation.

Piano extended techniques

Rešidbegović developed a number of instrumental techniques, such as his piano extended techniques and treatment of piano strings and resonator of the instrument such as the use of synthesizers in contemporary classical music.

Approximate Reductionist Graphical Notation ARGN

Rešidbegović determined his notation for electronic and acoustic instruments in his dissertation, "Subtractive synthesis in composition" as "Approximate Reductionist Graphical Notation".

Selective compositions
